Dont get excited but Romney has a record of appointing liberal judges not conservatives.

I read through the entire list.

I would prefer that someone with extensive experience in a US Circuit Court of Appeals get the nomination. There will be a record of his/her decisions to evaluate.

Nominating anyone else is just political payback (I’m looking at you, Obama and Kagan).

Romney has a history of liberal judges, so who knows really.

Clement, Kavanaugh, Brown, and Lee are supposed to be staunch Conservatives and maybe Sykes while the others are new to me. Lee is newly elected to Senate and appears to be making strong Conservative waves. Surprised that CNN would be publishing this list because I would expect them to be pushing the selection of more leftist prospective nominees to SC. All in all, the names here are pretty darn good. But, we all remember what John Roberts has done.

Sandra Day O’Connor was appointed by President Reagan, I don’t recall her being a hard-core conservative.

If Romney were like Reagan you would have a point, Romney is a liberal so you don’t.

What was the procedure for Romney to appoint judges in MA? Was he free to pick anyone that he wanted to or was he bound to a list of some number supplied by a governmental commission? Makes lot of difference in what his choices may have been. Do you know the procedure that was in place?

President Reagan was once an FDR Democrat.

Reagan was a conservative democrat, and became a conservative Republican - he was always a conservative.
Romney was a liberal democrat and became a liberal Republican - he was always a liberal, and still is.

Pay close attention to the word “unofficial”, the “who can we get past the Senate” Repub thinking, vs. the “we are going to ram our nominee down your throat” dems thinking are not in play when projecting your link. I am sure Nixon’s pre-election nominees looked like Jefferson and Madison clones, yet look what happened, lol.

It is best not to go back to WWII to attack Reagan in defense of the anti-Reagan Mitt Romney.
